Thank you thank you Gentlemen for your warm welcome...

My weight has neutralized what little power the 230 gives and lower the suspensions even further :yumyum: It does feel a little sluggish now.. wondering if I should tune it up.. Will read up the threads later.

when i test drove this car, i decided that it i would have no other e class. bro i think all u need to do is to step the pedal until u press the magic button at the bottom... when i test drove it at the MB centre, i could feel the power difference compared to the 200, but at the MB driving experience, i think they over "tortured" the workhorse, cuz i noticed that there was a something missing compared to the test drive unit...

Hi as I am new here, a short introduction is as follow.

Age: 15

Likes: Luxurious powerful cars, Sensible Women, Jazz, Classical Music, Classic Rock, All S Class except W220

Hates: People who do not appreciate the technology and science behind Mercedes-Benz and intends to use the car as a means of showcasing one's wealth

As far back as I can ever remember, I have always been an ardent Mercedes fan. I liked the quietness of the cabin, the wood, the leather, the quality and most of all the engineering. I still vividly remember my first ride in a car bearing the three pointed star, a W124 E Class diesel or a taxi as others would call it. Shortly after at the age of 5, I rode in a W210 diesel taxi, being young, I was fascinated with the rear air con louvers. I have since realised that the W210 is a rubbish car since Mercedes-Benz decided during that era that their cars were 'Needlessly Over Engineered'.

I have been in many cars over the years and I still find myself, attracted to the three pointed star. You buy a Volvo or Toyota with you brain but a Mercedes-Benz with your heart, a heart full of passion and love. I secretly enjoy the fact that 97% of the world's Government own an S Class, it is simply a testament to the technological innovations and engineering levels the S Class has attained. I found this club after I decided that since the US and many other countries had a Mercedes club, there should be one in Singapore.

Personally, I have never been in an S Class. :( Anyone willing to give me a ride? My personal favourite would be the W140 followed by the W126. I like how the doors close with a vacuum motor, the sheer size of it and the long distance cruising capabilities it has. It is like spotting a really pretty girl on the road, you do not need to get in bed with her to know that it would be fun. Similarly with the S Class, by looking at it ride, sound and handle, I can safely conclude that it will be a good car.

I have always reserved a seething hatred for any modern American or Malaysian car, they are just built down to a really low price before the accountants decide on a high profit margin and to justify the ludicrous price, they use what they would call 'Brand Awareness Campaigns' or advertisements for short. You end up with a car fit for the scrap yard in 4 years, with no serious engineering and most important of all, lacking panache.

Welcome on board W140.

I have since realised that the W210 is a rubbish car since Mercedes-Benz decided during that era that their cars were 'Needlessly Over Engineered'.

Although the general consensus is that it was manufactured during the era when accountants engineered the car, I wouldn't go as far as to call it rubbish. You might change your opinion when you get to punt it around town. :thumbsup:

welcome w140, glad to know there are some other young dudes out there who share the some love and passion that went into the benz-es of our time, and even before.

personally i've always chosen the s class as a goal a car, specifically the s65 amg with all options.

i went down to the mercedes centre to take a seat in the w221 after i drove my friends w220 for 4 days (he was generous enough to use my humble w203 for that duration). the MB driving experience allowed me to throw the s class ard a corner while trail braking with it - it was fun, and it handled like a dream. big car through a corner - passengers feeling nearly nothing.

looking forward to meeting up with u soon - although i cant offer u a ride (maybe in the future)...
